The current evaluation system does not provide comparable data for different caches, but rather only a single user opinion of the difficulty and terrain. Difficulty and terrain stars requires more user feedback, so that the various caches would be better comparable.
Stars could be given, for example the following basis:
- at the time of cache publication, the cache owner give the difficulty and terrain stars
- every cachers who has found the cache, give his/her own voluntary assessment of the cache stars while logging the cache into the gc.com
- after - let's say ten cachers assessments, the cache owner's assessment is replaced with the mode or median of the cache owner and other cachers assessments or cache owner weighted mode or median. Maybe some percent of the worst and the best assessments would have been rejected before averaging.
- the cache owner be allowed to reset the votes, if the owner is required to make changes to the cache.
How do you think such a classification?
